It had SS/B on the pillar and said "contestant 1967 Winternationals Feb 5-6-7 " above the rear wheel
Sounds fishy. First off, in 1967, Feb 5,6,&7 was Sunday, Monday,and Tuesday,and its hard to tell from the 2 photos, but the car appears to be a 68, based on the 1/4 panel trim, but with 67 fenders. Do you have a shot from the grille, and aVIN number. Also, if it was a 67 Mustang, the biggest engine was a 320HP 390, hardly SS/B material. And if it was a 68, the 428 CJ was available, but at the 68 Winternationals, the only CJs were the special factory race cars, which were all fastbacks, painted white. Have to wonder if that car has been treated to the fake `patina`that the rat rod crowd likes.
